What a 'classy' guy this governor.



He needs to look at his own government in how they have mishandled everything for decades.

Puerto Rico Gov. Ricardo Rosselló is through playing nice with President Trump.

After months of soft-pedaling his criticism of the president as Puerto Rico struggles to recover from Hurricane Maria in 2017, Rosselló voiced his frustration with the White House in a Thursday interview with CNN.

"If the bully gets close, I'll punch the bully in the mouth," Rosselló said when asked about a tense meeting Wednesday between members of the Trump administration and Puerto Rican officials. "It would be a mistake to confuse courtesy with [lack of] courage."

And you somehow think Trump is "classy"? He is about as crude as they come.

Nothing against Puerto Ricans but they need to stop acting like they have leverage. They need us more than we need them.

We don't need them for ANYTHING.

He's got some nerve making threats to our president. Trump needs to pull some strings, grant them independence once and for all, and never send another dime of federal money their way. Let them be another poor Latin American nation in the Caribbean.

We really don't need to be bothered with Puerto Rico.

Good job, gov. You think that will get you concessions from Trump? You've just gone from a mole on his azz that he doesn't care about to one that he will seek to have cut off.
